Disney's Alice in Wonderland, Book of Shadows

Guys, feel free to sit this one out...

It's not often we do such a girly post here at Empirical. ooh! makeup!!!

Here's something that fell into my lap awhile ago (last fall). It was a birthday gift and...let's just say I promised someone I'd keep it on the dl for awhile.

URBAN DECAY: Disney's Alice in Wonderland, Book of Shadows
"Created exclusively for Tim Burton's adaptation of Alice in Wonderland, this project was a (slightly hallucinogenic) dream come true. Our 16 gorgeous shades were inspired by tiny Alice's journey through the mushroom forest...a 'curiouser and curiouser' hike through twisted vines and skyscraping toadstools."


The lid opens to reveal a mirror and this pop-up diorama...






Beneath the pop-up is a little drawer that contains the cosmetics.

- Colors: Underland; Alice; Oraculum; Queen; Chessur; White Rabbit; Wonderland; Curiouser; Muchness; Mushroom; Midnight Tea Party; Vorpal; Absolem; Drink Me, Eat Me; Mad Hatter; Jabberwocky
- Liners: Zero; Flipside
- Travel size Eyeshadow Primer Potion

Pretty cute, isn't it?

I'll be absolutely clear about it--I was not given this kit to review or advertise. Am I being overly cautious here? Maybe. But my friend was so adamant about keeping it under wraps, she's got me paranoid. The cat's out of the bag, I think? I believe this is now on the market. No idea what it costs. You can search it yourself.

The real question is how to use this on mono-lidded Asian eyes. Someone help me please.
